Between two points brings together the work of the Masters students in the Photography department.

Conceived as a space for reflection as much as sensibility, the exhibition highlights the many ways in which the photographic medium is viewed. From critical engagement to poetic exploration and formal experimentation, the works on show explore the contours of the image and its narrative potential.

The Master 2 students at the Atelier de Communication Visuelle et Graphique invite you to discover their final projects. This key moment in their careers is the culmination of two years of research, experimentation and creation.

Through a variety of approaches, each artist sets out his or her vision, approach and commitments, in a demanding dialogue between graphic design, society and culture.

ENSAV La Cambre is looking for an Information Systems Manager.

Please see the attached job description (in french).

In partnership with Casino Luxembourg - Forum d'art contemporain / Casino Display, a new European post-Master's programme will be offered from the academic year 2025-2026. This programme is the fruit of collaboration between four higher art education establishments from three European countries: the École Nationale Supérieure d'Art et de Design de Nancy (ENSAD Nancy - FRANCE), ENSAV La Cambre (Brussels - BELGIUM), the Haute École des Arts du Rhin (La HEAR - Strasbourg/Mulhouse - FRANCE) and the Royal Academy of Art (KABK - The Hague - NETHERLANDS).

This artistic research laboratory is a programme that encourages collective and transdisciplinary artistic research within an experimental and process-oriented framework. It offers emerging artist-researchers a platform to explore new methodologies, engage in collaborative research and rethink traditional notions of authorship and knowledge creation. Operating in a para-academic and para-institutional mode, the lab emphasises deceleration, open exploration and the evolution of artistic practices rather than the production of finished works. Over a series of research weeks, the programme provides financial support for participants' projects, access to technical facilities and support from an international network.

Participants will be responding to the conceptual theme of ‘folds’, approached as a tool for exploring complexity, relationality and narrative potential in artistic practice.

All the practical information, including how to apply, can be found in the attached document and on the Casino Luxembourg website.

Deadline for applications: 6 June 2025

Screening of the documentary Fuga
As part of the ‘Territoires subjectifs’ series
(in the presence of the directors)

In the heart of the Peruvian Amazon rainforest, scarred by the violence of terrorist groups and the homophobic persecution of the 1980s and 1990s, Fuga follows the path of Saor, who accompanies the body of the woman who was once his love.

This second screening is part of the ‘Territoires subjectifs’ series of events. Using a film as a starting point, the aim is to explore the way in which the relationship with the territory is constructed and deconstructed, by crossing representations and imaginary worlds. Exploring these territories - be they geographical or physical, and always fraught with political issues - provides a space for the recognition of voices and stories that are often invisible.

Conference with Professor Louis Moneger, member of the SRABE (Royal Beekeeping Society of Brussels and the surrounding area) and Thomas Vancraeynest, teacher in the Industrial Design deparment. A discussion on the dangers of the Asian hornet for bees. The event will highlight the innovative solutions devised by La Cambre students, calling on the public to take action to preserve biodiversity.

‘De quoi le curating est-il le nom? Métamorphoses d'une pratique dans le champ d'exposition’ is published by La Lettre volée. This new essay by Julie Bawin is the fruit of a reflection on the exhibition and its players, on the museum and the role played by artists in particular, and on the way in which the curatorial offer is constantly being renewed.

Over the last fifteen years or so, the word ‘curating’ has become a particularly fashionable code word in the world of contemporary art exhibitions. But what practices does it refer to exactly, and why has this Anglicism come to supplant the term ‘commissariat’ in the French language? Answering these questions is not simply a matter of highlighting the role played by artists, museum curators, authors and exhibition ‘makers’ in the revival of the exhibition field from the 1960s-1970s onwards. The idea behind this book is that curating, far from being a recent phenomenon, relates to earlier and successive (r)evolutions, both in the field of hanging and scenography and in the professional and institutional sphere in which exhibition organisers operate. Since the mid-nineteenth century, curatorial activity has passed into the hands of an ever-increasing number of protagonists, and now oscillates between hyper-professionalisation and increasingly tangible deprofessionalisation. In fact, it would seem that nowadays the profession - recognised as such - is within the reach of everyone, and in particular of those whom the author calls ‘curatorial outsiders’.
